Mars is the Oars of the Boat.
Mars, as the 3rd and 8th lord, represents the transmutation of the Virgo native's desire nature. Mars ruling the 3rd house gives a strong desire nature that will not hesitate to use strength or aggression to fulfill ones desires. The 8th house lordship, however, creates difficulties to this thereby breaking the native's desires and egocentricity, purifying them. Mars also gives a penetrating mind and a talent for deep research. Due to the 3rd house lordship, Mars is a temporal malefic with a very self-centered nature, additionally, as the 8th lord and a natural malefic, Mars is neither helpful to the native's wellbeing or that of others, except to the degree that it destroys egocentric qualities.
